The professionals' booths will circle the park, but at the center will be the work of 18 hand-selected student artists. It was a group of art students that started the show nearly 100 years ago.
Now, the Rittenhouse Square Fine Art Show is known for being the oldest continuously run outdoor art show in the country.
The show will open at 11 a.m. each day. On Friday, Sept. 14, it will close at 7 p.m. The next day, it will close at 6 p.m. and on the final day, it will close at 5 p.m.
